When conditional jumps are performed on the same scalar register (e.g., r0 <= r0, r0 > r0, r0 < r0), the BPF verifier incorrectly attempts to adjust the register's min/max bounds. This leads to invalid range bounds and triggers a BUG warning. The problematic BPF program: 0: call bpf_get_prandom_u32 1: w8 = 0x80000000 2: r0 &= r8 3: if r0 > r0 goto <exit> The instruction 3 triggers kernel warning: 3: if r0 > r0 goto <exit> true_reg1: range bounds violation u64=[0x1, 0x0] s64=[0x1, 0x0] u32=[0x1, 0x0] s32=[0x1, 0x0] var_off=(0x0, 0x0) true_reg2: const tnum out of sync with range bounds u64=[0x0, 0xffffffffffffffff] s64=[0x8000000000000000, 0x7fffffffffffffff] var_off=(0x0, 0x0) Comparing a register with itself should not change its bounds and for most comparison operations, comparing a register with itself has a known result (e.g., r0 == r0 is always true, r0 < r0 is always false). Fix this by: 1. Enhance is_scalar_branch_taken() to properly handle branch direction computation for same register comparisons across all BPF jump operations 2. Adds early return in reg_set_min_max() to avoid bounds adjustment for unknown branch directions (e.g., BPF_JSET) on the same register The fix ensures that unnecessary bounds adjustments are skipped, preventing the verifier bug while maintaining correct branch direction analysis.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
